Win A Raised Garden Bed Kit!

Win A Raised Garden Bed Kit!

This giveaway has ended. Spring is here and Earth Day is this Friday, April 22! What a great time to get outside and start planting your garden. If you follow us regularly, you know we've been sharing a lot about our new Lifetime Raised Garden Bed Kits on this blog lately. We've even shared a few video reviews of the product from people who have seen them in the stores and others who have tried them already.

These cool new Raised Garden Bed Kits are getting talked about quite a bit on our Facebook page. Why all the talk? Because this 4'x4' bed allows you to set up an entire garden in less than one hour! And, it includes an early start enclosure kit to turn the bed into a greenhouse. Needless to say, they are quickly becoming a very popular product. In some areas, they are selling so quickly it's hard to actually get your hands on one. In fact, they aren't even available in the Lifetime Store online yet! But, luckily we managed to snag one before it left the factory. So, guess what? We're going to make it easy for one lucky person to get a Lifetime Raised Garden Bed Kit by giving one away this month in honor or Earth Day!

Guess that means you better start figuring out what you want to plant... because you may just be this month's winner!

Raised bed gardening makes growing vegetables and flowers much easier. The 4'x4' size would make it simple to reach in for planting and harvesting. The early start enclosure would be perfect for planting during cool spring temperatures in Wisconsin.

I have a small backyard on the edge of a ravine with lots of trees that offer great shade, but isn't ideal for gardening. I would love to be able to garden on my deck which gets full sun most of the day. We're doing a windowbox herb garden, but would love a place to grow tomatoes, beans & zuccini. Yum!

I would like to win the raised garden bed kit for my parents. They are in their late 70's and can no longer get down on the ground to garden very easily. Both are avid gardeners and the raised garden bed would help them enjoy gardening again.

WOW...Just what I need to grow fresh veggies on my deck. My husband and I are trying to eat better and would love to grow a garden. We have a huge problem....WE LIVE ON THE SECOND FLOOR OF AN APARTMENT BUILDING!! This would fit perfect on our deck and would be a god send. With the economy being so bad and gas prices rising we here in Northern Michigan have been hit hard. This would be great because we could also put the veggies up in our little freezer to use all winter long...got my fingers crossed on this one!!

Where Do You Store Your Lifetime Tables & Chairs?
I know, I know. It's been forever since I last blogged, but I'm back! Back from where? Oh, just the usual, life in general...family visits, taking the kids to school and soccer, cleaning house, whatever. Although, I did squeeze in a quick vacation to Cancun which was soooo relaxing and fun!! Anyway, to those of you who have missed my regular weekly posts (thanks, Mom), your wait is over! :)
So, the other day when I was getting out my vacuum cleaner, I happened to see my Lifetime folding chairs and began to wonder. (Yes, Im infamous for random association-thinkingyou know, where one thought leads to another to another to another.)
Anyway, my first thought was that Lifetime folding chairs are super comfortable. But, geez, compared to other cheap, flimsyfolding chairs, they sure are big. (Obviously, this is a great feature whe...

Black Friday!!!
What is your favorite part of Thanksgiving? My wife’s favorite part is going shopping! I find more satisfaction in staying home, eating too much, and watching football, but, to each their own. I went one year with my wife and after I got beat by a bunch of spry and motivated ladies while trying to get some sheets, I decided to retire from Black Fridaying (is that even a word?).
My goal is to help you know where you can find our products. With so many different retailers carrying our products, I wanted to help you wade through the mess.

Love my Pumpkin Carving Table!
Halloween is such a fun time of year! Who doesn’t love costumes, face paint, spooky decorations – and my personal favorite – pumpkin carving?!
So last night, my husband and I set out on our pumpkin carving adventure. My husband not only carves pumpkins, but he is amazing at shaving in faces, and doing all sorts of cool stuff. Over the years, he has helped me get more and more into it as well.
Since I knew this was going to get pretty messy, I didn’t really want to use my wooden kitchen table, so I decided to pull out my trusty 4-Foot Fold-In-Half Lifetime Table. We live in a smaller apartment, so this is the perfect table for us. It is super easy to store and ...
